My Interview
-
How would you describe yourself in 3 words?
Fun, Geeky, Musical :)
Were you ever in trouble at school?
I was sometimes late with my homework because I was always out on an evening playing with bands and orchestras!!
Who is your favourite singer or band?
At the minute, Lady Gaga, but I also like Pendulum.
If you had 3 wishes for yourself what would they be? - be honest!
To be taller (all my friends call me short), to play with a band on the main stage at the Glastonbury Festival, and to be the 12th Doctor in Doctor Who.
Tell us a joke.
Why did the computer cross the road? Because the chicken programmed it to! (sorry, its lame I know!!). What’s brown and sticky? A stick! Is that better?
